Warranty question???

When you bring your motor to a Mercury Dealer and he performs warranty work is it common for the Dealer to charger you the entire bill and then reimburse you after Mercury pays them? And if Mercury down not pay then entire bill then are you stuck with the rest????? http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/mad.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/mad.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/mad.gif

ive never heard of that...sounds like the dealer is sure its gonna be covered, but he really wants to do the work...

I called Mercuy Customer Service today and complained and the man I spoke with could not belive that is what this dealer is doing. Also said that they are not very highly rated.

So to make a long story short, I will never step foot in that dealer show room again! http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/mad.gif

You should phone the dealer, let him know there's a blank, signed check on the way to him. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/wink.gif Can't imagine why he wouldn't be highly rated! I'm just thankful I live near an excellent and trustworthy dealer- European Marine. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/thumbsup2.gif

That is a totally BOGUS practice. http://xs-s.com/zf/images/smile/emthdown.gif

The ONLY possible scenario I can DREAM of, would be a QUESTIONABLE gearcase replacement (where there was question as to whether the replacement would be covered due to possible impact damage). And most any knowledgeable/reputable dealer is going to be willing to make a determination "on site" in better than 98% of cases, even there. http://www.bassboatcentral.com/smileys/eyes.gif
